Make use of improved color contrast for group badges

Darkle

With the 1.7.0 update, the improved color contrast of the text labels was introduced to improve accessibility, which is pretty cool, and finally I could get rid of a lot of CSS rules to manually adjust each label, today while removing some of those rules I came across the ones I use to change the icon color in groups with light backgrounds, which is exactly why I thought that now that this system is included in Flarum it would be a good idea to use it for group badges.

I haven't made an issue about this in the Flarum repo because I don't think it qualifies as a bug(?), but if I'm wrong and it does, I'd have no problem creating an issue to track it, just let me know.

Darkle good idea! Feel free to open a github issue so we can try to get it into 1.8

CyberGene Please, make these things optional or through extensions. Or at least think how to disable them for people who don’t like them

Since you already have it disabled you wouldn't need to do anything more to disable it 👍

I know I’m kind of rigid but I don’t like when things change. I was very disappointed in how the tag text color changed and the fact this wasn’t discussed and announced in advance. Luckily @SychO could help me disable it through CSS but initially it wasn’t clear how to disable it and I had to restore my forum from a backup. Please, make these things optional or through extensions. Or at least think how to disable them for people who don’t like them.

For the protocol, I’m color blind, I have a moderate variety of red-green deficiency (protanomaly) and any locally heightened contrast makes it even harder for me to distinguish similarly bright colors (like e.g. light red and light green ). There’s no way you can make all people with visibility problems happy. What’s great for one would be bad for another.
